Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in /home/south/public_html/directory.php on line 132 Larry Adams What a long strange trips its been. I had an insurance agency in Redondo Beach for twenty years. I got togehter a 20 year old Riviera Elementary school reunion together back in 1984. I still keep in touch with some of you, mostly females. The 70's was filled with Backgammon, the 80's with poker, and always the horse races. I used to own and race horses, but now just gamble on them. My motto has always been wine, women and song. Oh yes, and gambling. Now I'm just hoping to stay retired. My e-mail address is lladams@cox.net. Good luck, fellow Spartans.

Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in /home/south/public_html/directory.php on line 132 John Helliwell From John Helliwell e-mail HelliwellJ@aol.com. Only 10 more years until our 50th reunion. I hope someone takes hold of the reins on this and gets it organized. Love to see everyone again. A quick overview of my life. Was wild in high school. Didn’t settle down until later. I don’t preach but Jesus is in control. Married at 21, had 3 children, Ron 36, Kriscinda 35, and John 31. They all live in Alaska. They won’t leave. They love it there. I went to Hawaii with my job but my wife wouldn’t come. Only saw her on vacations. After 4 years I couldn’t do that anymore and we ended in divorce after 27 years. That is something in life I didn’t think I would ever do. I made the commitment and I was going to stick with it. Anyway, everything is done for the best and now I am happy. Found me a Hawaiian girl. We are best friends and have a bitchin time together. Took her off the island and now we have been married for 10 years. Her 3 children live in Hawaii. We both took up golf and love it. Go whenever we have a chance and always on the weekends (together of course). This month hit my longest drive, 329 yards. It just happened to be in a tournament and on the hole for the longest drive. That’s kind of how my life has gone, from good to better. In perfect condition mentally and physically except this big stomach that sticks out. Hope this finds you all in good health. Feel free to e-mail me. I am also on facebook as John Helliwell. The picture is of me on my blue Big Dog Motorcycle. Take care and God Bless

I just found this website but have been keeping in touch with a few South High '69ers on Facebook. I retired last year from IBM as a Customer Operations Manager after 27 years. It's great to be free again! Now that I am retired I have time on my hands to play on the internet, travel with my husband Greg and reflect on my rebel rousing days on the beaches of Southern California. Have lived in Arizona for 17 years. Would love to hear from my old rebel rousing friends from the past.

Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in /home/south/public_html/directory.php on line 132 Barbara "Boni" (Sanok) Eernisse Over the last 40 years, I have lived in Seal Beach, Bellflower, Bullhead City, San Gabriel Mountains and now Montana. I married Gary in 1970, had our son in 1973 and stayed at home until our son was 11. I did some craft shows while our son was still little and then worked as a secretary for 13 years until downsizing in 1995 and I was layed off. I started a custom embroidery business and had that for 8 years and retired from that 6 years ago. I still do an annual job for a golf tournament, but now I spend most of my time at the gym trying to stay ahead of the middle age bulge and I knit for charity ( I knit burial clothing for preemie babies that don't make it as well hats and booties for those who do). Gary will retire in two years, but we have made travel a part of our lives while we are healthy and able. We have seen places that I never thought I would in my lifetime. I am very grateful!! I hope to hear from you soon. Boni
